Sustainability suits us
For us, sustainability is the core value that guides all our activities. In 2021, we decided to amend our Articles of Association to become a Benefit Corporation and formalize our commitment: to pursue a more sustainable business model capable of generating a positive impact on society and the environment, creating value for all stakeholders: employees, clients, end consumers, suppliers, local communities, institutions, and shareholders.
Sustainability report
We want to act responsibly and communicate clearly and transparently with all our stakeholders. In 2023, we published our first Sustainability Report, which reported our sustainability performance in the economic, social, and environmental areas for 2022. We have drafted our Sustainability Report following GRI international guidelines and under Italian obligations regarding reporting for Benefit Corporations, providing a clear and comprehensive impact report.
